Description
In Tim and Robin, young readers will study the short “i” vowel sound as a kid named Tim helps fix a robin’s wing so that the bird can zip and dip through the sky again. Each book contains a word list, high-frequency words, short vowel words, and fun activities for extended learning.
Published in collaboration with Indigenous Education Press (IEP), a First Nation owned publisher passionate about Indigenous Education, the Drumbeat Decodable Book Collection provides the systematic practice children require to become phonics-wise readers. These books teach readers short vowels (a, e, i, o, u) in the context of cvc (consonant-vowel-consonant) words that bring an Indigenous Perspective. Each book features high-quality storytelling and vibrant illustrations to create an engaging reading experience for children. Author Sandra Samatte has a Bachelor of Education degree and expertise in creating Indigenous books and resources that are respectful, are culturally appropriate, and hold cultural integrity for educators, children, and young people.
